  • Lecture 6/3

    • We used the pointwise majorisation result that we had for harmonic extensions of L^1(\mathbb{T}) functions.
    • We gave some mild conditions for convolution operators to be poitwise majorised by the Hardy-Littlewood Maximal function. This automatically applies to the Poisson integrals.
    • We introduced the weak L^p spaces L^{p,\infty}, and the distribution function.
    • We expressed the L^p norm of a function in terms of its distribution function.
    • We stated, for p\in (1,\infty), the L^p boundedness of the Hardy-Littlewood function, as well a the M:L^1\to L^{1,\infty} boundedness result.
    • Assuming the M:L^1\to L^{1,\infty} boundedness, we proved that M:L^p\to L^p for p\in (1,+ \infty]. We gave an interpolation proof.
    • We stated the Marcinkiewicz interpolation theorem for sub-additive operators T (If you revise the proof we gave for M, we proved Marcinkiewicz theorem under the diagonal case T:L^\infty \to L^\infty and T:L^1\to L^{1\infty}).
    • As a consequence of the general Marcinkiewiz result, we obtain Young's/Haussdorf inequality for 1, and announced that for p\in (0,1], the same inequality holds provided we change L^p by H^p(\mathbb{D}). The result for p\in (0,1] is due to Hardy and Littlewood (1927).

    Notes:
    1)The proof of the weak L^1 inequality uses the so-called "Rising sun Lemma". This will differ from the approach in the lectures.
    2) The Maximal function in the book is the so-called uncentered Maximal function, while the one in the lectures is called the centered maximal function. On can indeed show that both are pointwise equivalent to each other (Exercise).

  • Lecture 13/3

    • We motivated the study of Maximal operators (I called the Fundamental Analysis principle [as it appears in Krantz' book]), as a natural way to study pointwise convergence. In some cases, the pointwise convergence is indeed equivalent to the boundedness of associated maximal operators (Stein's principle).
    • We introduced  the notion of Subharmonic Functions, and established some properties.
    • We gave an equivalent characterisation, for continuous functions for being harmonic (We only proved one direction. The other can be found in the book of Duren).
    • We deduced the property that averages on spheres of radius r of subharmonic, continuous non-negative functions is non-decreasing  in r.
    • We stated Jensen's formula (w/o proof).
    • Obtained as a corollary that given a holomorphic function in the disc then \log |F|, \log_+ |F| and |F|^a for a>0 are subharmonic functions. 
    • We (finally!) give the definition of Hardy spaces H^p(\mathbb{D}).

  • Lecture 20/3

    • We recalled the theorem regarding the existence of non-tangential limits of functions in h^p for p\in (1,\infty].
    • We showed that if p\in (0,1]., those properties are preserved for functions in H^p provided they have no zeroes.
    • We proved Jensen's formula and the accompanying lemma stated in the previous lecture
    • We proved the completeness of Hardy spaces a metric spaces.
    • We proved that the zeroes of functions in the Nevalinna class can't be too far away from zero, so we can form a Blaschke product with them.
    • That Blaschke product B is an element in H^\infty(\mathbb{D}), with \Vert B\Vert\leq 1. Hence  the non tangential limits exists.
    • (We stated without proof) that the Blaschke product B satisfies that |B(\xi)|=1 a.e. and \lim_{r\to 1} \int_{\mathbb{T}} \log 
|B(r\xi)| d \xi=0.
    • We stated the first factorization theorem: If X=N or H^p, and F\in X is not identically zero, then if B is the Blaschke product formed with the zeroes of F, then we can write F=BH with H\in
 X and \Vert F\Vert_X=\Vert H\Vert_X, and H has no zeroes.
    • We gave the proof for X=N.
